Rock climbing and zip lines

The top photo shows me climbing out of the canyon on the rock climbing wall, while my two sons waited below for their turn. My prior experience with rock climbing was limited to a couple of trips to an indoor rock climbing wall with my sons about 15 years ago. This canyon is obviously much taller than an indoor rock climbing wall.

The top of the rock climb out of the canyon is not the end of the zip line adventure. We were only about half done. There were more zip lines to come, criss-crossing and traversing the canyon.

The second photo shows my older son taking a zip line from the top of the rock climb towards the next platform, while my younger son is climbing out of the canyon in the background.

Tomorrow I will show you the destination of the zip line shown in this photo. It is unique.
